Certain internet services are open to anyone who's birth, adopted, or married surname is Gotchy or Gauthier (My
wife's family history shows that her family name was changed from Gauthier to Gotchy a few generations back) or
who can document direct descent from a Gauthier or Gotchy. These services include:
1 - A lifetime personal email address at gotchy.org (ie myname@gotchy.org) with automatic forwarding to your
existing email account at your favorite Internet service provider (ISP). We all change jobs, residences or outgrow
our ISPs. Don't let these changes cause you to have an identity crisis - just get a gotchy.org email address! It's
yours for life -- give it out once to your "inner circle" and then whenever you get a new email address
you only need to notify us -- not everybody who needs to contact you. This service forwards email sent to you@gotchy.org
to any email account regardless of how often you change providers or which provider you choose. You will continue
to retrieve and answer your email exactly the same as you do now except you will be able to give out your
gotchy.org email address.
2 - If you want a personal or professional web site presence at gotchy.org -- not just a web site with somebody
else's name, this is the place! I do not host websites. However, I can redirect Internet browsers from your
gotchy.org URL directly to the URL address of your existing personal or professional web site at your present ISP.
It works just like the email forwarding service. You then will be able to publish your web site name as "www.gotchy.org/myname"
where "myname" is your personal web page name. Your gotchy.org website URL will use the same screen name
as your gotchy.org email address. Because the Gotchy/Gauthier family name will be associated with your web page,
it will be accepted only if it meets my standards for honesty, decency, and appropriateness. Click here for our Terms
of Service.
Remember, there will be no change to your present internet service (email and website hosting). I am merely
providing a forwarding service so that you can have a gotchy.org address for your email and website.
If you change ISPs for either your email or for hosting your website you must remember to keep me up to date on
the email address you want your gotchy.org address forwarded to. Otherwise, your mail won't get there! To
make such a change, click here.
Although I do not charge for these services, I welcome donations. T

Note: Recently, people with hotmail.com and msn.com email accounts say that their email does not get forwarded from their gotchy.org email address. Apparently, Microsoft has made changes to hotmail.com and msn.com which interferes with third-party forwarding services. Email going to yahoo.com accounts also seems to be a problem. The company that provides this forwarding service for me says they are trying to work with Microsoft and Yahoo on this problem. I suggest you send a couple of emails to yourself at your new gotchy.org email address to test it before you rely on it's compatibility with hotmail.com. If this problem affects you, I suggest you get a free gmail.com email address. Gmail works very well with the gotchy.org forwarding service.
To begin your gotchy.org internet presence, please enter the following information, then select your gotchy.org
email address.
